Utilizing big data to uncover the impacts of temporary outdoor dining design on encouraging active travel behaviours –multiyear evidence using Toronto CaféTO as an example

This research explores the dynamic relationship between temporary outdoor dining program and public bikeshare usage, using Toronto' s CaféTO as a case study. It leverages extensive multi-year micro-mobility data, capturing the shifts in travel behaviors triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic. Our study aims to unravel the longitudinal impacts of CaféTO' s design elements on active travel patterns in the built environment. Such detailed, location-specific examination of effects is further enriched by investigating social media data. The outcomes will be instrumental in directing sustainable landscape development and fostering active travel, contributing to the creation of future healthier and more vibrant cities.
